Back in 1988, Yuki Masami’s “Kido Keisatsu Patlabor” (Mobile Police Patlabor) was released as a manga series and an anime.
The manga received the 36th Shogakukan Manga Award for shonen in 1991 and is a beloved manga series by many.
Yuki took to Twitter to post the following:
自分でも宣伝。『機動警察パトレイバー 』愛蔵版、発売されました。おそらくこれが作者生存中最後の『パトレイバー 』単行本になります(笑)。値段が若干お高いですが、函入り造本、カラーページも復刻されておりますので、お財布にゆとりがありましたら、是非お手に取っていただけると幸いです。 pic.twitter.com/hTIykV4LFI

Yuki wrote, “Advertising myself. “Mobile Police Patlabor” is now on sale and this is probably the last “Patlabor” book while the author is still alive (laugh). The price is a little expensive but the booklet in the box and the color pages are also reprinted. So, if you have a little extra in your wallet, I would appreciate if you could pick it up”.
The book is the first volume of the Treasure version which includes a reproduction of the color manuscript, a large number of color illustrations and rough sketches are also included.
